Description

Elm Grove is a large Tudor/Gothic villa built around 1830-1840, situated on a terrace. The building features crazed rubble with ashlar quoins and dressings, a weathered cornice string, and corner buttresses on the ground floor. The east entrance front has a double ashlar-faced centre break with a parapet raised in a small gable. There is a crenellated oriel window on the first floor with flanking lights, and a crenellated gabled parapet above a crazed rubble porch that has a four-centred arch entrance. On either side of the centre, there is one window each, with three-light wood mullioned transomed casements; the left ground floor window is a canted bay with a crenellated parapet. The south garden front features two gabled wings and two small gables over the first-floor windows in the centre, with drip moulds above the casements and a shallow rectangular bay window on the ground floor, which are later 19th-century alterations. The villa is prominently positioned on a hillside.

Local climate

Elm Grove receives an average of 800 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 54% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 87% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 7 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 95% of listed buildings. Of these, 3 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
